This was certainly an interesting concept. Getting the cast of a television show “A Little Slice of Haven” back together after twenty years to play their characters for ten days. It felt like going behind the scenes on "Father Knows Best" or "Leave It to Beaver". If this could really be pulled off, you would learn what the actors are really like. How they'd get along in real life? What "drama" might go on between them off stage. The author gave us a glimpse of the answers to these questions by setting up each character in “real life”, then showing the reader the television version of each one. There were some "conditions" that each one had to agree to in order to collect the two-million dollars each was told they would receive for doing this. They had to stay in character every minute of the day and night, and they had to live in the recreated town of Haven for the ten days. They are each given limited directions each day but have no idea what their castmates have been told to do. It is a really great story that starts on a slow burn and ramps up the heat. The reader will find that they must keep reading or listening to see what would happen to these characters both in “real life” and in the fictional town of Haven, that is coming more "real" by every turn of the page. You will HAVE to stay to the very end to learn WHY billionaire Felix Worthington set this up...but it is SO worth it.… (mer)

Finally out of my reading slump! This book was different -- in a very good way. Liked the characters and felt involved in their problems/issues. The storyline was interesting and didn't resort to the recent unsatisfying trend of introducing a bizarre twisted element to tie things up. Listened to the audio version and the narrator was terrific.
Now I'm back in my reading groove.
